Sustainable Cosmetics Summit – North America 2026

The 17th North American edition of the Sustainable Cosmetics Summit convenes approximately 130–140 beauty industry professionals at Dream Downtown by Hyatt New York on May 21–22, 2026. Organized by Ecovia Intelligence, this specialized conference gathers cosmetic manufacturers, ingredient suppliers, retailers and distributors, industry certification bodies, researchers, academics, and investors to address sustainability in beauty. Thematic focus areas include ethical sourcing of natural ingredients and biodiversity preservation, reducing plastic in packaging through refillable and compostable alternatives and post-consumer recycled (PCR) materials, formulation innovation for non-toxic and clean beauty products, and climate commitments by established brands and carbon-neutral startup ventures. Keynote speakers and expert panels address regulatory compliance (REACH, FSII), supply chain transparency, communicating product sustainability authentically, and overcoming deforestation risks in sourcing palm and other renewable cosmetic ingredients.
